# Ingredient List:
→ Dry Ingredients
01 - 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
02 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
03 - 2 teaspoons baking powder
04 - 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
05 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
→ Wet Ingredients
06 - 2 large ripe bananas, mashed
07 - 1 cup whole milk
08 - 2 large eggs
09 - 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
10 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
→ To Serve
11 - 1/2 cup pure maple syrup, warmed
12 - 1 banana, sliced
13 - Optional: Chopped toasted pecans or walnuts
# Directions:
01 - In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly mixed.
02 - In a separate bowl, blend mashed bananas, whole milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
03 - Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined, leaving a few lumps intact to maintain fluffiness.
04 - Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
05 - Spoon approximately 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and edges set, about 2 to 3 minutes.
06 - Turn pancakes and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked through, adjusting heat as necessary.
07 - Place finished pancakes in a warm location while cooking the remaining batter to maintain temperature.
08 - Stack pancakes and top with sliced banana, drizzle with warm maple syrup, and sprinkle optional toasted nuts if desired.
